Dr. P Jyoti :

RLS is a clinical diagnosis

Dr. P Jyoti :

since you are having such severe symptoms I would not say that you do not have RLS

Customer :

explain?

Dr. P Jyoti :

since yu have been on Mirapex since a long time, this is the drug that works best for you

Dr. P Jyoti :

a clinical diagnosis means there is no test, etc that can determine whether you have RLS or not

Dr. P Jyoti :

so a doctor has to decide whether you have RLS or not more or less depending on your description of your symptoms
